A Guardian's Journey
The game's narrative is set in the mystical world of Elderym, where players take on the role of newly awakened Guardians. Players embark on an epic adventure to combat a dark force known as the Dread. The gameplay blends roguelike dungeon crawling with strategic squad building, allowing players to select up to 10 Guardians with unique abilities for each dungeon run.
During combat, Guardians automatically engage enemies, and players can manually trigger special abilities for devastating effects. Each dungeon features a recommended Guardian Level to help players gauge the difficulty. The game also offers various challenges and rewards, including adventure dungeons, arena battles, and daily quests.
Crafting and Empowering Guardians
Outside of dungeon runs, players can manage and empower their Guardians through crafting and progression systems. The Merge Board allows players to combine resources to create higher-quality materials, used in the Forge to craft powerful gear. Guardians can also be Enlightened or Ascended to increase their power, with Ascended Guardians becoming tradable NFTs known as "Radiant" Guardians.
Players earn rewards for logging in regularly and unlocking achievements. These rewards include soft and hard currency, crafting materials, equipment, and more. Web3 rewards enable players to compete in various game modes to earn exclusive NFT prizes and tokens.
